I didnt discover just how little I knew until 2010 while attending the WMA Convention in Denver

The best part about these dresses is you can wear them repeatedly throughout the year, no holiday party necessary, to get the most value out of each purchase

It encourages a certain lifestyle rooted in traditional homemaking skills like baking bread instead of purchasing it from the store, gardening, and making your own clothes

Overall, this black floral dress is a great transition piece for spring and I know this is one Im going to wear all year long

Lace and satin are excellent fabric options, but the chosen material should convey refined sophistication
